The Ventura County Assessment Appeals Board convened on October 6, 2025, to address multiple applications, primarily focusing on requests for continuances. The board decided to postpone several cases to January 26, 2026, allowing additional time for necessary information to be gathered.

Chair Sisk opened the meeting, noting that some members were unable to attend in person due to unforeseen circumstances. The board agreed to reschedule the hearings for applications from Vista at Simi Valley LLC and other related entities, emphasizing the importance of providing requested data to the assessor's office within 30 days of the new hearing date.

Throughout the meeting, the board systematically addressed each application, confirming the need for postponements and ensuring that all parties were in agreement. The assessor's office supported the continuance requests, highlighting that additional information was still pending for many cases.

The board's decision to reschedule these hearings reflects a commitment to thoroughness and transparency in the assessment appeals process. By allowing more time for data collection, the board aims to facilitate informed decisions that will ultimately benefit the community.

As the board looks ahead to the January meeting, stakeholders are encouraged to prepare the necessary documentation to ensure a smooth and efficient process. This proactive approach underscores the board's dedication to fair and equitable assessments in Ventura County.
